kitchen doors
my niece has what i think is a really nice kitchen with beech type coloured doors and cornice but wants to change just the doors to a black gloss type so that it contrasts with the original coloured cornice, i havent seen this in any of the diy shops so if anyone knows a link where we could view similar i would really appreciate it as its quite hard to imagine what they would look like together, many thanx

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Something that I think I've suggested to someone before... if you decide to paint, take the doors to a car body/sprayshop. They could spray with a synthetic matt black, then finish with a few coats of extremely hard-wearing high-gloss lacquer.
It's often done with cars. If you fancy being really cool, have some fleck mixed in with the lacquer :o)

i have told her she is daft to change them as they are fine but she wants to be trendy and diffrent at the same time. i dont think she would achieve a good paint finish as she isnt too good at gloss painting but will look into the other ideas, in the meantime i am going to see if i can find any pictures online of something like what she is after, many thanx
I did have a look at a few of kitchen design sites but many of them wanted me to download software and well...I couldn't be bothered.
Have a poke around in Ikea, Wickes, diy-kitchens, etc, you can download packages that will allow you to design your kitchen. You should be able to create the look your niece is after, the sites I looked at didn't have cornicing as an accessory.
